Pros

Paid PTO (yes, paid twice)- which is PTO, reimbursed vacations. Amazing work/life balance.

Cons

Been here over 2 years, no cons. Never said that about any other occupation I’ve had.

Pros

Product is pretty good if you only need it for an ATS, onboarding, and hiring. The transition from sales to implementation went smooth for clients which made the job easier. Co-workers were friendly and helpful.

Cons

- Being a robot and using the same lines for every sale. Lack of personality was welcomed, as long as you can memorize the script- you'll be fine. -Constant change in titles as a sales rep, if you sold more you'd move to a Sr. Account Exec. role, if you didn't meet those requirements you'd be demoted with a huge downgrade in pay until you worked your way back up. -Management would give more leads to seasoned sales reps, causing friction between other sales reps. -If you didn't hit quota one month, you'd be put on a plan and every day you would be told if you don't hit quota they were going to have to let you go. -When I asked to take well earned PTO, I was denied, however my manager would take PTO whenever they liked. - Payroll lacked job costing and labor distribution which deterred most of my clients away. -Lack of integrations with other basic payroll systems. -Leads from all over the country, so you could be taking a call at 3am.
